Hullbot
"Frequent autonomous hull cleaning service deploying globally."
Sydney-based autonomous underwater robot service that cleans and inspects vessel hulls, cutting fuel use by up to 26%.
Hullbot is an Australian robotics company founded in 2014 by Tom Loefler and headquartered in Rozelle (Sydney), New South Wales. The company designs and deploys autonomous underwater robots that clean and inspect vessel hulls and propellers without human divers, using a proprietary 4K-camera vision system for precise underwater positioning. Hullbot's high-frequency cleaning service eliminates biofouling and reduces ship fuel consumption by an average of 15%, and up to 26% in some cases, removing the need for antifouling paints.
Having completed over 1,000 cleans across ferry, commercial shipping, and fishing fleets in the US, EU, and APAC, the company raised a $16M Series A in November 2025.
